---|---|
Experimental: JCARH125
Subjects will receive a course of lymphodepleting chemotherapy with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide followed by a single dose of JCARH125
|
Biological: JCARH125
Participants will undergo leukapheresis to isolate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) for the production of JCARH125. During JCARH125 production, participants may receive bridging chemotherapy for disease control. Following successful generation of JCARH125 product, participants will receive a course of lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by one dose of JCARH125 administered intravenously (IV). |
Experimental: JCARH125 + anakinra
Subjects will receive a course of lymphodepleting chemotherapy with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide followed by prophylactic treatment with anakinra and a single dose of JCARH125
|
Biological: JCARH125 + anakinra
Participants will undergo leukapheresis to isolate PBMCs for the production of JCARH125. During JCARH125 production, participants may receive bridging chemotherapy for disease control. Following successful generation of JCARH125 product, participants will receive a course of lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by two doses of anakinra administered subcutaneously and one dose of JCARH125 administered IV. Subjects receive anakinra for 5 consecutive days following JCARH125 infusion. |

Key Inclusion Criteria:
-
Diagnosis of multiple myeloma (MM) with relapsed and/or refractory (R/R) disease. Participants must have received at least 3 prior anti-myeloma treatment regimens. Participants must have previously received all of the following therapies and must be refractory to the last line of therapy prior to entering the study (not applicable to Phase 2a):
- Autologous stem cell transplant
- A regimen that included an immunomodulatory agent (eg, thalidomide, lenalidomide, pomalidomide) and a proteasome inhibitor (eg, bortezomib, carfilzomib, ixazomib), either alone or in combination
